523: Chapter 503: Blazing Sun 523: Chapter 503: Blazing Sun “Already back?”
For so reason, Lu Ping’an was sowhat addicted to “studying” these days.
He had no intention of actually going to check out the case of the entire village disappearing…
His ti was very valuable and he had spent all his spare ti researching more about the local “Holy Fire System,” leaving no energy for other things.
So, he reassigned his resources and sent a combined team of rcenaries and the Knight Commander to investigate the missing villagers’ case.
Chandler, the Deputy Commander of the local Knight Corps, was more powerful than Ben, the previous Deputy Commander, and was only slightly weaker than Dida, the Commander.
It’s worth noting that the local Knight Corps’ inheritance was all Sealed Knights…
Regardless of their strength, Holy Fire Knights and Holy Fire prayors could never beco Commanders due to their religious attributes.
A Decree-level Sealed Knight Strongman along with Double Silver rcenaries could easily travel unhindered in the border region, as long as they did not encounter any monsters related to the Deities – basically, there would be no issues.
By the way, after signing a supplentary agreent with the lord, and giving out four boat tickets, Lu Ping’an had control of the Knight Corps, and the knights respected and obeyed him much more than their previous master.
Now, the explorers were back and had brought back the reason for the villagers’ disappearance.
It was a two-headed monster with a monkey head and snake tail, possessing a bizarre ability to fly…
Its snake tail had a strange mind-control ability that mortals could not resist.
The creature appeared to be a local ancient life form yet it was extrely weak – three silvers and the knight easily subdued it.
The villagers?
Not even bones were left behind, as the greedy creature had no plan to restrain its appetite.
A monster with a Decree-level ntal ability slaughtering a village with only one or two extraordinary beings (around first-tier) was not difficult, and it took only a few dozen minutes to silently finish harvesting.
In its nest, only bloodstains and fragnts of clothing remained, with every bone chewed clean.
Such an existence was a huge problem, but an even bigger problem was its appearance at this point…
“The Earth Sealing Skill is starting to fail…”
This was expected.
Although most of the sealed beings had lost their lives over the long years, there were always those who had not yet reached the end of their lifespans, and even more powerful life forms that could withstand the passage of ti…
such as Evil Gods and Quasi-Gods.
Chandler, the Deputy Commander, personally went to investigate the seal and found a record confirming the creature was a “Double Haugh” demon, which had been sealed 67 years ago.
Was this loss of control coincidental?
Probably, since there was no large-scale army of Evil Gods appearing, but it was also an inevitability…
an inevitability that everything would inevitably get out of control as ti went on.
When Chandler returned, his face was as pale as a corpse.
It wasn’t that he feared the sealed monster; instead, it was when he casually checked and found out how many demons were buried in the Schlei domain over the years.
The answer was delightful: many, a lot…
Silver-tier demons, even their corpses might cause secondary pollution, so sealing and wrapping them up was the best disposal thod.
No one knows how many were buried over the countless years.
A few hundred?
A few thousand?
Even more?
“Your Excellency, we need to reassign so personnel, please approve.”
Receiving the request, Lu Ping’an hesitated and asked with doubt.
“Is it aningful?”
“….I don’t know, most likely not, but we think we should do it…”
The middle-aged knight sighed, his eyes filled with despair.
“…At least, doing sothing won’t leave us thinking too much…”
At this mont, the old man’s expression even shows so pleading.
“Then go, take more people, and bring them back too.”
Lu Ping’an didn’t object, and there was no need to.
He knew that Chandler and the others would patrol with the Knight Corps, with the focus on “active demons sealed within the last hundred years”.
If they found any other escapees, they would eliminate them directly.
If the area was relatively dangerous, they would slightly relocate the people.
Relocate to where?
Temporarily to the City of Schlei.
Anyway, the current state of the farmland isn’t being utilized, farrs are eating stored goods and receiving relief food, so it’s easier for them to leave their land.
But both Lu Ping’an and Chandler knew that this was basically aningless.
The news of the trouble with the Earth Sealing Skill has already been spreading on a small scale, and what will happen next is inevitable sooner or later.
Escape?
Where can they escape to?
But the news brought back by Chandler and the rcenaries also confird the authenticity of the “prophecy” from the side, which made Lu Ping’an busier and busier during this period…
Even “Little Catherine” was a bit overwheld by the enthusiasm of so people.
Lu Ping’an also sent Xia Qin, at least in na, she is the leader of Lu Ping’an…
What Lu Ping’an trusts more is her character rather than her ability.
At this ti, Lu Ping’an also felt the lack of his small team, he lacked professionals in this area and could only use warriors as clerks.
“Don’t confuse the primary and secondary, we are always warriors, professionals, and eager to evolve and race against ti…”
Lu Ping’an knew what Big Cat ant, perhaps, she had seen too many similar scenes.
There might be so escape, but Lu Ping’an’s reason also reminded himself that the most important thing at the mont is still taking away the local “specialties”.
So things will be gone in at most half a year, he is not a savior…
Anyway, not now.
After becoming a Holy Fire prayor, he spent a lot of energy studying the Holy Fire, and he actually researched so things.
“God of Life, and Sun God…?”
The God of Life and the Sun God are the two most important divine positions in the Eternal Scorching Sun, but they are actually sowhat conflicting.
Under normal circumstances, the high-temperature sun that affects star bodies should belong to the “Constant Motion” system, while the Life system is an old friend of Lu Ping’an, and its source is “Ten Thousand Spirits”.
These two conflicting divine positions contain a considerable number of sub-rules.
If anyone monopolizes the concepts, they can beco a super boss…
The Sun God monopolizes the two realms for a reason.
“The sun is the source of life.
It is the beginning of everything, radiating light and heat, illuminating the world.
The heat of all life cos from the sun.
It is the origin and destination of all life…”
The Sun God Church’s scriptures, looking at this part alone, are not only reasonable but also sowhat scientific.
“…Therefore, the sun records the normal trajectory of all life.
Those who deviate from the Eternal Scorching Sun will be burned by the Sun Holy Fire, and only those who follow the path of the sun can be calm under the Holy Fire…”
From this point on, this is total nonsense.
“…As the source of life, the sun descends into the mundane.
It is the fla of life, burning all twisted life born from non-solar sources and returning them to the sun.
The pure fla is not only a fla of punishnt but also a fla of redemption and purifying fire.
All those who have gone astray will be lost in the fla, and their souls will be given a chance of salvation.”
This is probably not just nonsense, but an utterly whimsical fabrication.
But from these scriptures and materials, Lu Ping’an also knew why the Sun God wanted to monopolize the two realms and what exactly the “Sun Holy Fire” was.
“Fire of Life?
Or is it the Soul Fla…
No, this fla itself is a form of powerful pollution!”
